I just got a CPR Acclimation center from JL. http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/s...t_ID=mc-faid02

Awesome little unit. It works well. Put fish and little shipping water in it, open drip valve and set on bracket in tank. Container slowly sinks into tank, letting water into it from tank. Acclimatizing to salinity, and temp. Once its full, Close valve at bottom, and drain water, remove fish and put in display tank, Worked great, easiest acclimation I have ever done. I used to do the drip in a bucket method, But you can't get temp right as water in bucket cools as it's dripping over the 2-3 hrs. The CPR is in the tank, so is kept warm

Hello Everyone,

Thanks for the helpful tips :D

I got a chocolate chip star yesterday and dripped acclimated it for like 2 hours. It's doing great. I have put a flake near its tubes and it ate it too. Alongside, its busy exploring the new tank but I guess my clown is a bit unhappy with it since it was also taking the clown's spot and the clown kept on changing its host spot. Fun animals :D
